In the press release, OLAF pointed out that the findings include irregularities in direct payments for farmers in the SR in the amount of more than one million euros and systemic weaknesses in the national procedures of verification of these payments. The investigations concerned direct payment applications made between 2013 and 2019 by several companies.
